Verdict

With a few of these not coming here in their best form, it may be safer to side with a contender who has been running consistently, and SNOWSTAR fits the bill. Willie McCreery's progressive filly has placed in each of her last five races, having only had six starts in her life, and should be capable of further improvement in a relatively weak-looking handicap off a workable mark. She can be considered unlucky in finishing third over C&D last time and she is taken t o make amends here. Flawlessly got off the mark in a maiden handicap last time and will need to improve again here but could easily do so, while Aggression is another who has been some nice races recently.
